I'm sorry, I don't want to be sucked by you

Of course Zhong Xianya refused to answer, "What is Mother Concubine doing?"

"My concubine is not feeling well recently, and she feels dizzy when she looks at the account book. Ya'er, you have been in the house for several months, so please rest assured." Yu smiled kindly, and pushed the account book and the key in the direction of her daughter-in-law. The attitude of rushing ducks to the shelves should not be too obvious.

Can Zhong Xianya say that she doesn't want to share her mother-in-law's worries?Of course not.But Yu Shi can pretend to be sick, so can she. She hasn't been eating well or sleeping well lately, her face is already pale, and she looks so weak that she covers her mouth with a handkerchief and coughs twice, pretending to be ashamed Said, "It's not a coincidence for the concubine to come, Ya'er forgot to close the window when she went to bed two days ago, she has been ill for several days..."

Mrs. Yu was a little unhappy when she heard the words, "Why are you so careless?" Then she looked at her dowry maid and said angrily, "How do you take care of the master? If the princess doesn't come, don't you know until now? Don't tell me Not much to say, one person goes to the housekeeper to receive [-] boards, and the right is to teach him a lesson!"

The four maidservants were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they all knelt down, "Princess, please spare me!"

Of course, Zhong Xianya couldn't let her mother-in-law vent her anger on her maid, so she quickly grabbed her arm to intercede, "Concubine Mother, it's none of Qingdai's business, I'm the one who wants to sleep with the window open..."

Yu Shi patted the back of her hand, and said with a deep expression, "Ya'er doesn't need to intercede for them, the master is thinking about it, as maidservants, they should have fulfilled their duty of admonishing them. If they don't do it, it's a mistake. Must be punished!"

After the words fell, the personal nurse called the housekeeper and the guards, and dragged Zhong Xianya's four maids, including the nurturing nurse, out to beat them.

"Miss, help!" "Miss, ah—"

Zhong Xianya's hands trembled with anger when she heard the screams all over the yard.

Seeing how she dared to be angry but dare not speak up, Yu smiled smugly. Since ancient times, only mother-in-law has been able to control her daughter-in-law. Zhong Xianya dared to reject her, so she made her have a hard time every day!

When Mrs. Yu left, Zhong Xianya hurriedly asked the little girl to help her back into the house, and then sent someone to invite the doctor.Seeing the miserable appearance of Qing Dai and the others, Zhong Xianya held their hands guiltily and shed tears, "I'm sorry, Qing Dai, Hong Ran... I'm the one who got you both."

Qing Dai slowly shook her head, thinking of her own lady's situation, she mustered up her courage and said, "Miss, the princess obviously wants to use your dowry to fill the palace, you must not soften your heart..."

The son-in-law is cold-blooded and utilitarian, the prince is absurd and lustful, and the concubine is even more cunning. Without the dowry, how will the ladies live their lives in the future!

Except for the loyal Qing Dai, the rest of the maids were crying in despair.Because the lady's dowry was coaxed away by the princess, it would be a dead word for them to go back to Duke Zhong's mansion; but if they don't follow the princess, there will be more days like this in the future, and they will be tossed to death by the princess sooner or later!

Zhong Xianya heard the sobbing sound in the room, her heart was so cold, she held Qing Dai tightly with her backhand, a flash of determination flashed in her eyes, "Don't worry, I won't soften my heart, Miss."

She wants to divorce!

Zhong Xianya made up her mind, and asked someone to secretly deliver a letter to Duke Zhong's residence the next day.

Originally, with Ling Tian present, the concierge and guards of Dingnan Palace were quite strict.But since Ling Tian left, Fu Yu has been busy messing around with concubines and maids every day, and doesn't care at all.Fu Mingyu wanted to take care of it, but he didn't have the ability. The guards played tricks in front of him and kept him in the dark, but he still felt that he was very powerful.

The daughter cried in the letter, and Mrs. Guo was so anxious that she sent a post to visit her soon after.Mrs. Yu is not afraid of her at all. She doesn't believe that the Duke's family dares to intervene in the family affairs of the prince's family because of the married daughter and the water splashed out?

"Mother!" When Zhong Xianya saw her mother, she finally couldn't hold back the tears she had held back for a long time, and threw herself into the arms of the Duke's wife, crying bitterly.

Mrs. Zhong Guogong hugged her daughter who had lost a lot of weight, her heart ached like twists, her eyes turned red instantly, "What's the matter, you didn't explain clearly in the letter, why did you want to reconcile?"

Zhong Xianya wept and told all about her experience in the palace, not even concealing Ling Tian's matter, "They really have no humanity at all, and even set up a trick to kick out my own son, when my dowry is calculated, If there is no use for them, will they drive me away too?"

"What kind of dowry, what kind of scheme? Ya'er, are you making a mistake? How could the Dingnan Palace do such a shameless thing?"

Zhong Xianya wiped away her tears and smiled miserably, "Mother, don't you know? The Dingnan Palace has been squandered by the prince long ago, and there is only an empty shell left. Take a look at the gardens, painted walls, and walls of the palace. Hanging, on the shelf, is there a valuable item?"

Zhong Xianya called Qing Dai and the others again, "Look at my group of maids and mothers, all of them are still injured. Qing Dai, tell Madam, how did the princess force the young lady to accept the gift the day before yesterday? "

Qingdai's face was as white as paper, and she knelt down to the mistress enduring the pain on her back, "Ma'am, what Miss said is true, the palace has not issued a monthly report for two months, and the servants have spread the word. Besides, my uncle spends money lavishly, what do you give me?" I'm afraid the cash that the young lady prepared has already been spent."

The Duke's wife was startled, she turned her head and asked her daughter, "Really?"

Fearing that her daughter would lose herself after marriage, she prepared a full 8 taels of silver!

Zhong Xianya couldn't help but want to praise Qingdai for her cleverness. Although Fu Mingyu didn't use her money alone, he passed the strange disease on to her, but her dowry was all used for the treatment.Even if one-third of the 8 taels were used, she couldn't dismantle Qingdai's platform at this time, so she lowered her head and nodded silently, "Yes."

The Duke's wife sneered red-eyed, "This big family are all blood-sucking wolves and man-eating ghosts! Looking at it now, I'm afraid that only the eldest son who was driven away is good. When your grandfather asked you to marry the eldest son, why did you marry him?" I fell in love with Fu Mingyu!"

"Mother, I regret it now." Zhong Xianya covered her face and started crying again.

The Duke's wife sighed, and touched her poor daughter, "Forget it, even if you married the prince back then, your life is not easy now."

The former son is still wanted.

"Mother, the matter of reconciliation..." Zhong Xianya timidly raised her head, her weeping little face was no longer as fresh and tender as when she got married half a year ago, she was pale and thin like a devastated little pitiful.

Seeing the pain in her heart, Mrs. Guo couldn't help but let go, "I'll go back and discuss it with your father."

Zhong Xianya was overjoyed. Knowing what her mother said, she agreed, and said earnestly, "Mother, you must help Ya'er convince her father, otherwise Ya'er really won't be able to survive."

"Nonsense, you still have parents, why can't you survive!" Mrs. Guo pretended to reprimand, and soon hugged her daughter and cried again.

Fortunately, Dingnan Prince's Mansion wanted to keep filial piety, and Ya'er was not pregnant.Although it is difficult to remarry, it is better than raising such a large palace with dowry.

Mrs. Guogong went back full of depression. That night, the Duke returned to the mansion and listened to his wife's cry. He agreed without much thought, "Let's make up and leave. Although Ya'er was wrong in the original matter , but if Fu Mingyu hadn't deliberately seduced her, how could she have been coaxed by him? Now that Ya'er is about to reconcile, I don't believe that Dingnan Palace dares to ignore us and confront us head-on!"

There is a reason why Zhong Guogong suddenly became tough. Before that, Prince Dingnan was a celebrity in the eyes of the emperor, and he dared not offend.But now the Dingnan Palace is rejected by the emperor, anyone with a discerning eye can see it.The emperor wants to arrest the former son, not just because the other party is a "wild species", there must be other reasons.

Now that it is confirmed that the issue of background is just a farce, Zhong Guogong is even more sure of this.Not only that, but he also alertly sniffed out some signs, and it would be better to cut off the relationship between his daughter and Li, so as not to be implicated.

Not only Yu Shi, but even Fu Mingyu didn't expect Zhong Xianya to reconcile. He was shocked, "Why?"

Shouldn't a married woman regard her husband as her god!

"Why?" Zhong Xianya felt sad and funny, "I gave you a chance, but how did you treat me, and how did you treat your elder brother..."

Fu Mingyu glanced at Zhong Guogong, interrupted her in a panic, "Shut up, that bastard is not my elder brother!"

"You can say whatever you want..." Zhong Xianya didn't argue with him, since everyone knew what was going on anyway.

"Zhong Guogong, it was Xianya who took the initiative to associate with Ming Yu, so we allowed her to come in..." Fu Yu had a cheeky face, and planned to threaten Zhong Guogong with the private exchange between the two of them.

Zhong Guogong sneered, "My lord, do you know that you should keep a line in your life so that we can meet each other in the future. I heard that your invitation to be crowned son is still suppressed by the emperor. When the day of filial piety comes, will the emperor still think of a Dingnan palace?"

So what about an empty title?Apart from eating, drinking and having fun, Fu Yu has nothing worthy of the emperor's attention!

"Are you threatening this king?"

Zhong Guogong snorted coldly, and continued, "Why are the girls in our Zhong Guogong's mansion just playing small troubles, can it be compared to your own son's planning? If the emperor makes an order again, it will not be as simple as a fine."

Fu Yu's face was green and pale, but he couldn't find a better reason to suppress Zhong Guogong, so he could only sulk in annoyance.Fu Mingyu flinched and tugged at his father's sleeve, "Father, forget it, Zhong Xianya can make up if she wants to, and I will help her!"

When he becomes the eldest son and inherits the palace, Zhong Xianya had better not turn around and beg him!

The two sides had already torn their skins apart, and there was no need for further talks, so Fu Mingyu wrote the letter of reconciliation on the spot and let Zhong Xianya leave.

Before leaving, Duke Zhong warned, "Rumors are double-edged swords, so please be careful. If there are any rumors that are unfavorable to Duke Zhong's residence, the palace may not be able to stay out of it."

Fu Yu snorted coldly, "This sentence is also what this king wants to tell the Duke. If there is any bad news about my Dingnan Palace, let's wait and see!"

"Farewell."

"Humph!"

Watching the servants pick out her last dowry, Zhong Xianya had mixed feelings in her heart, but she didn't regret it.After half a year of marriage, the sweetness is only less than a month, and the rest is all bitterness.

"Let's go, don't look back." Mrs. Guo held her daughter's arm, holding back tears and whispering in her ear.

"Ah."

At this time in the palace hall, Fu Yu, Yu Shi, and Fu Mingyu were complaining to each other. Fu Yu felt that it was Yu Shi who pushed Zhong Xianya too hard, so she ran away with her.Apparently, Fu Mingyu thought the same way, and both father and son felt resentment towards Mrs. Yu.

Of course Yu was not convinced, "If you hadn't squandered the property of the palace, I would have coveted my daughter-in-law's dowry? And you, Zhong Xianya is your daughter-in-law, if you don't coax her well and let her obediently take over the gift, I will Is it necessary to kill chickens and monkeys?"

"It's your woman's business to give a gift, how can I coax it?" Fu Mingyu felt guilty, he didn't dare to see Zhong Xianya at all, and since he planned his elder brother's matter, the two have been living apart.He either went to Tongfang, or stayed alone in the front yard, and never returned to Songtao Garden.

Yu was angry, "You father and son don't care about it, and you leave it to me and say that I push people too hard. Now the eggs are flying, let's drink the northwest wind together in the future."

Fu Yu didn't believe it, "Is it really that serious?"

"My lord thinks that my concubine lied to you? I haven't issued the monthly bill in the mansion for two months." There are so many servants in the palace, and the two-month monthly bill is worth thousands of taels of silver.

"What should I do?"

"There are so many aunts in the prince's backyard, and there are people who serve them..." To increase income and reduce expenditure, kills two birds with one stone.But this is not a long-term solution. The servants will always find out about the children of these aunts.

But there is no other way, Zhong Xianya ran away.

In fact, if it wasn't for the filial piety period, their palace could still marry their daughter.With the title of the palace, no matter whether it is a merchant or a squire, there will always be a lot of dowry.

Fu Yu understood in seconds, gritted his teeth, "That's the only way to do it."
